Circulatory system in 3-D
A New View of the Cardiovascular System in 3-D By Sheril Kirschenbaum | October 30, 2015 | 1 The parrot had a terminal disease and was entered into the Grey Parrot Anatomy Project at the University of Utah. During this phase of the study, the vasculature was highlighted with BriteVu and revealed previously undescribed anatomic features such as the kinked jugular vein at the lower right of the picture.

War Death Cash Nexus
MILITARY DEATH TOLLS -- 11/02/15 - 0 COMMENTS Today's selection -- from *The Cash Nexus* by Niall Ferguson. With the dawn of the Industrial Age, casualties suffered by Western forces in wars increased dramatically and culminated in the 57 million deaths of World War II. Since that peak, however, casualties suffered by these same Western forces have slowed precipitously. Why?: "The death toll of the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-13) was 1.2 million.
